Chapter 85: The Remnant is King
I slept very badly that night, and my whole heart was tugging even in my dreams, and the next day, when I opened my eyes, I saw Wen Renling standing in front of me and looking at me condescendingly.
I almost screamed in horror, dragging the quilt and jerking back.
He stood there still, but the way he looked at me made me shudder.
It was smiling, sneering, cold, strangely hot as fire and cool as ice, with gazes.
"Why are you so afraid of me?" He slowly approached me, smiling at the corner of his mouth.
"Is it a dream that I cut you to pieces?"
He crouched down to look at me, and he smiled big as he looked at me in horror.
At this moment, a bell rang throughout the Xiyue Kingdom, and the bell was dull, melancholy, and pierced through everyone's hearts with a unique mournful sound.
This is the death knell, the king is gone.
Wen Renling squatted on the ground and looked at me gently, and he took out a bead from his arms, and his whole body was shining with silver light.
"This is the Dragon Quest, I know you need this thing, but it takes a lot of money to get it," he stood up and carried me to the bed, I was already numb and couldn't move, "This price is too great, I'm afraid that Si Qing will be reluctant to give it to me, so I'll wronged you, Qing Tong." ”
Then he leaned against my bed and began to sing, with a shallow smile on his lips.
I felt only a tearing pain in my heart, the feeling of my soul pulling away from my body came back again, and I dug my nails into my flesh, desperately trying to keep myself awake because I couldn't faint anymore.
If I faint again this time, without the Soul Bead, I will be scattered.
My will was desperately fighting against Wen Renling, and in the end, I lost.
I seemed to have a long, long dream, in which Si Qing took my hand and walked through a sea of flowers, and he said let me wait for him to come back, and he said that he would marry me.
The dream was so pleasant that as soon as I turned around in bed, my hand fell into the palm of a person's palm.
Warm, smooth, with well-defined veins and slender knuckles.
I opened my eyes, and before I could lift the quilt, my eyes suddenly lit up, and a person gently lifted the quilt and lowered his face, and said in a low voice, "Awake?" ”
I watched as his ebony hair fell down in front of me, and I watched him smile lightly, sleeping on his elbows beside me, fingertips running lightly across my forehead.
Si Qing!
I was delighted, but then I suddenly thought of something, and immediately my face was horrified.
"Si Qing! Wen Renling wants to harm you, he is not a good person! ”
As if he hadn't heard, Si Qing leaned down slightly, and his warm and soft lips touched his forehead.
I could feel his trembling through the quilt, his kiss falling on my forehead, his tears falling on my face, and I listened to him try his best to suppress his trembling voice, with a sense of horror and joy of being lost.
"Qing Tong, I almost lost you."
I almost lost you, and I almost lost you.
I have never seen Si Qing so vulnerable, I always thought that Si Qing was invincible, until today I know that I am his weakness, I am his vulnerability.
I reached out and hugged him, forehead to forehead, I gently smoothed his back, I didn't know what to say at the moment, only silently accompanied.
I had the bead that Si Qing gave me on my chest, and at this moment, the silver at the end of the red flower in the bead also turned red, the red was fierce, and the red was thrilling.
"Si Qing, the soul bead is in Wen Renling's hand."
"I know," he stroked my long hair, "now it's in you." ”
I suddenly remembered what Wen Renling said, he knew that I needed the Soul Bead, but the price was very high, and he was afraid that Si Qing would not give it to him, so he had to wronged me.
So......
"At what cost?"
Si Qing was silent for a long time.
"It's just to help him get the throne."
